$7 - $25 / night
"Fifth wheel with ease with little assistance from a park host. The only reason why I didn't give a 5 star was because we were very close to neighbors."
"Very clean facility, awesome cope course"
"At $35/night with full hook-up, wifi, paved patio this was a pretty good bargain.
The person who checked us in was nice and helpful and the process was speedy."
"There is no bath house or laundry on premises but there is a very nice dog park."
$45 - $50 / night
"Still being upgraded, so newish pad was still soft but pretty level. Sewer pipes stick out a good 6 or 8 inches."
"This campground is very quiet and right near the water. I enjoyed it and would stay again."
"The sites are mostly gravel with areas of dirt, but mine was level. I was near the bath house and laundry which were both clean and well maintained."
$20 - $45 / night
"I find great peace here."
"My parents stayed here and they had such a positive experience."
$35 / night
"With level sites, plenty of trees, and 30 or 50 amp hook-ups, this is a great place to get away from it all."
$50 / night
"Stumbled upon this after a relatively close campground was unhelpful for long term. This is a fresh park, many upgrades coming this year."
$22 - $50 / night
"This campground has magnificent views, spacious sites, picnic tables, firepits, power (30 and 50 amp) and water hookups, dump station, bathrooms, and groomed swimming area."
"Backing in took a few minutes, not the simplest but achievable for our 30 ft fifth wheel."
"Your neighbors are a fair distance away, but your head and tail of the RV points to them- so once inside you're not even aware of them."
"There is a slightly steep step down to get to a lower ridge that walks into the water, be careful in the rain, but that’s where we scattered our hammocks throughout."
$22 - $64 / night
"(Basically we spend a week at each cos of limited availability) We stayed in GA and SC sides of the lake and two out of three have great cell coverage on ATT and Verizon - this one is great in that regard"
"The roads are great for bike riding and walking. Sites have electricity and water. Bath houses are older but clean. Wildlife live in the woods around the sites."
TravelerThis place was so perfect and our first camping experience with our new 40 foot RV! Check-in was easy and they even let us change to a pull-through site last minute. The grounds were sooooo gorgeous! Trees everywhere. Walking trails. And of course the lake. We went during fall colors so it was really magical.
PROS: Clean restrooms, spacious RV sites (they felt very private), many bathhouses within walking distance, friendly staff, nice gift shop
CONS: wet firewood and of course you had to buy from them, playground very small- made more for toddlers/preschool age, less than 5 years old, long walk to the dumpsters

The site (21) was very easy to pull through and had a wonderful view of the lake. I had to try to see my neighbors at the next site because the foliage separated the sites well. I saw a grounds person actively maintaining the empty sites which explains how well kept this campground is. The access roads are well kept.
GuideThis place has some great sites. Our site was #25. It was a pull through with 30 and 50 amp plugs. It’s a level lot with a grill, fire ring, picnic table and another small table. It’s right on the lake. There is a retaining wall at the water so it’s about a 3” step to the water. We plan to bring a sep ladder next time. Beautiful place to spend your time camping.
LegendWe arrived at last light, and I am glad that we had daylight while we backed in. Lovely site, spacious. Sites 98 & 99 T off the connector road. Layout it such that your RV is parallel to the road, overlooking the water which is 80- 100 feet away. Your neighbors are a fair distance away, but your head and tail of the RV points to them- so once inside you're not even aware of them. We are 30 foot fifth wheel with F250, and i imagine the back-in would have been more challenging if 99 was occupied. Nice family oriented park. Water and electric all good, dump station on way out.
Did not use facilities, but apparently showers and toilets are a little drive away.
Wood: We drove out of the park, turned left and found an honor-system wood kiosk on parallel road - just over the railroad tracks. $5 for a small bundle, but it was worth it to us.
Leveling was not an issue.
Hosts keep site nice and clean,
Data: Visible worked great (25 mbs up & down, so no need to break out hotspots, Starlink etc
GuideThe sites are mostly gravel with areas of dirt, but mine was level. I was near the bath house and laundry which were both clean and well maintained. The population looks like a mix of mostly long-term residents, with a few mid to short-term. It is a full hookup facility, and all my connections worked well.
ScoutWe stayed over on our way to Charleston, SC. We booked it online. We had no hookeups, but water and a dump station is available. There are hiking trails, canoeing, and fishing. The ranger was super friendly and they are pet friendly. We had to switch sites when we arrived due to a space issue. We have a 32’ RV and the site stated a max of 35’ but there was a tent pad that would have interfered with us being level. We were allowed to switch with no issues.
LegendThis is a clean well-cared RV park that is a nice place to stay but a bit of a no- frills park. We were busy exploring the town so it was really just a place to park our RV and the fact that there were not many amenities was fine with us. The park is close to I-20 and I-520 so there is easy on/off and it is a great place for an overnight if you are just traveling thru. At $35/night with full hook-up, wifi, paved patio this was a pretty good bargain.
The person who checked us in was nice and helpful and the process was speedy. All the roads are wide and easy to navigate. The sites are level and we had no problem fitting our RV and tow car in a back-in site. Our driveway was gravel/sand but the patio was paved with a picnic table. There is no cable but there is a clear view to the sky if you have satellite and we were able to receive numerous television channels with our antenna. Note that there are no restrooms or laundry. As with many RV parks, the sites are close together and since this is a fairly new park there are no large shade trees. Note: that there are no fire pits and campfires allowed.
Numerous stores and restaurants are nearby and there is lots to do in Augusta. There is a nice walking path by the canal downtown where you may see some urban wildlife. Would highly recommend visiting the U.S Army Signal Corps Museum at Fort Gordon and the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area Interpretive Center downtown. We also did a narrated canal boat tour which was very informative and entertaining. Both were very interesting!
LegendThis time we’re in site 7-first time in this loop. Backing in took a few minutes, not the simplest but achievable for our 30 ft fifth wheel. Campsite excellent- electric & water, plenty big site-fire ring and picnic table
Also love trail from here to dam wall - did a bit of bush trail cycling. Awesome
TravelerWe stayed one night at Calhoun Falls, SC site 86. The site is the first one in the second grouping of campsites directly across from the camp host. Site 86 is a pull-through. There are 12 steps down to a lower level picnic table and fire pit area. There is a short path down to the water.
There is 30amp power available as well as household style 110. The 30amp power seemed to be a little finicky.
The camp host's dog barked for several hours after our arrival which was not very relaxing. During the barking, the camp host decided it was time to run a leaf blower for a while. So we decided to take a walk.
We liked the walking paths and the public fishing pier.
There is a rail line that crosses the lake. We heard the train horn a couple times that night. Dogs, leaf blowers, trains ... not the relaxing weekend we had hoped for.
Security seemed a bit lax. There were several cases of motorcycles and show cars, maybe lost boaters come in an out of the camp area at all hours.
The dump station was in bad enough shape that we did not feel it would be in our best health to use it (see picture).
We probably will not go back even though this is not too far from home.
